I'm looking to expand a bit. Can I get some Symphonic Black and Progressive suggestions? All I've got for Symphonic Black is Summoning, Graveland, and Nokturnal Mortum. The only Progressive I have is Ihsahn's The Adversary.
Try out Borknagar...a great mix of blck metal, folk, and progressiveness. Also, for symphonic black try out: Alghazanth, Arcturus, Emperor, Limbonic Art, Stormlord, Tvangeste.
Progressive? Well there's Rush, Opeth, Agalloch (great progressive folk with black metal vocals), Time Requiem (progressive keyboard-driven neo-classical), Orphaned Land (progressive middle-eastern folk metal with both clean and death vocals), Into Eternity (their latest release is a tad it too core for me), Between the Buried and Me (progressive metalcore, but fucking GOOD SHIT, very technical as well), Atheist (technical as fuck progressive death/thrash).
